Dungeon and Dragons – for Home Schoolers!
We are planning to run a new Friday afternoon Dungeons and Dragons club from 1pm until 3pm, starting in January. If you think your child would like to embark on wondrous quests and mythical journeys, has a vivid imagination and is curious about the world of Dungeons and Dragons and learn how to create and run their own adventures, this might just be the starting point for them. Zepelin is our Dungeon Master and he will be joined by another staff member to ensure the experience is a positive one for everyone.
